Interesting.

I guess AI isn't so dissimilar, with major 'sects' having major billionaire/corporate backers, sometimes aiming for specific niches.

Anthropic was rather infamously funded by FTX. Deepseek came from a quant trading (and to my memory, crypto mining) firm, and there's loose evidence the Chinese govt is 'helping' all its firms with data (or that they're sharing it with each other under the table, somehow). Many say Zuckerberg open-sourced llama to 'poison the well' over OpenAI going closed.
